About the author
I write for children of all ages. I live in Hampstead, London, and I'm available
for school visits and workshops.
. . . The best thing about
home is to have one. It's where we feel safe and
loved . . .
The idea behind
W is for World
Oxfam allowed me to browse their wonderful archive of photographs from around the world to create a multicultural alphabet. It was a delight to work with them. I hope the book reflects what children all over the world have in common as well as the differences.
" . . . a terrific evocation of
the breadth and wonder of
the people of the world."

" . . . a celebration of variety
and of the unique individuality that brings together the children of the world."
Floella Benjamin
Peace gives people the chance to work in the fields and walk in the streets without danger. Children can sleep undisturbed and wake up to find the world a safe place. . .
